Las Vegas Has Their Say on the 2017 Yankees

It is that time of the year where optimism reigns supreme,
the sky is the limit and everyone has a real shot at winning their divisions in
Major League Baseball. That’s the fan in me speaking and the eternal optimist
but Las Vegas, who has the betting odds and has made a living off not only the
triumphs but the falls of optimists such as myself, may or may not have
something entirely different to say about some teams including the New York
Yankees. Bovada Las Vegas has released their over-under win total predictions
for all 30 MLB teams and it looks like it may be another frustrating season for
the boys in pinstripes this summer.

Here are the win totals for the American League East from
Bovada’s predictions:

Boston – 92.5 wins

Toronto – 84.5 wins

New York – 82.5 wins

Baltimore – 80.5 wins

Tampa Bay – 77.5 wins

According to this the Yankees will very likely miss the
postseason once again in 2017 and the American League East may only send one
team to the second season. Ouchies.
